I covered that in my last paragraph. I was killing the mobs, but they weren't even xp'ing at the time. By the time they got everyone up and were ready to XP, the mobs were still dead, but I had teleported by then. They had to wait for fresh repops, but I was gone.

oops my mistake ^^
 
Lanien you asshole..................
















You've been back for a month and haven't said hi? I'm hurt! Think of all the days we spent leveling your lolDRG together back in the day with my RNG! What a jerk, sheesh! :P.

As far as the content of the OP and Lanien's defense, I dk, sounds like you were both tired. No opinion there.

lol Finally. I couldn't wait for this flame to come up after you threatened to put me on here.

Let's start this up. The party setup was as she mentioned. We started off doing clippers with the RDM pulling by the tunnel that leads to Qufim. Lack of attack power and the fact we were still level 19 made that tough, so we decided to move to the lake. Now, I am pretty sure most of you know that when you camp here and roam, you travel in one direction, and usually the tank will choose the mob. I, being the paladin, took over mob choosing duty whether, which I had asaid earlier in chat that I would be doing since that is how it is usually done, ya know, for anyone who has ever partied before.

Now that the back story is up, I can tell you how I came to leave said party. We are continuing around the lake with no problems, having 2 powerlevels and such, when all of a sudden I voke a mob and realize that the only person with me is the THF. I write in to chat and ask where everyone is while the THF writes up "We could use some healing over here". The THF and I come very close to dying, however, the PL shows up at the last moment and heals us up. This is when I start asking where they went, and to my dismay, Kiskie tells me that she "pulled" a worm that was behind us. This is when I start telling the party how a roam party usually works. Going back in the circle ends up ruining the pop succession of mobs and ultimately fucks with experience. Kiskie didn't like this, saying how she was the puller when infact for 10 minutes prior to that, I was the one selecting the mobs. She might be getting confused, since the RDM she said was pulling was pulling clippers when we were targetting worms, making it necessary for me to pull.

So we begin going at it in party chat, and most of you know me how I am normally easy going, and for me to get pissed means some bullshit was really going down. Kiskie begins to say how roam parties are never good because they are always so crazy. So I say if done right, roam parties can get the most XP out of any parties, but she continues to fight me on the fact we shouldn't be roaming, and that she and/or the RDM are still the pullers, and if they decide to turn around and grab a mob, we should follow. This is when I say I don't need this bullshit, leave the party and run back to Jeuno.

On the run, Kiskie initiates /tell with me, saying how she is a level 60, so to get that far, she must be doing everything right. I tell her I have numerous 75 jobs, so that is when she calls me "high level jerk." She threatens to flame me here as I continue to tell her how roam parties work but she is just too stubborn to listen. That is when I tell her I will be waiting for her flame here.

I start complaining in my LS as I usually do (Yes, Iso, I love you too). I switch to my 75 BRD, go back to the lake and kill me some Clippers and Worms. Yes, my original intent was bad, but that was when I noticed your party wasn't even moving. You had 2 dead members and were in no shape for partying. Did you notice that once you had all your members back up to health and started XP'ing that I stopped? Yes, I originally intended to kill your XP mobs because of your stubborness and stupidity, but once you and the party got up, I realized I would be hurting 5 others for your actions and I tele'd away. The mobs were dead from the round I just killed, but after that, it was free reign for you. But I guess the fact that me buffing your party members as they ran around doesn't count for anything, right?

Oh, one more thing. As I read responses, I noticed I missed something. Never did I say "Do what I say or fuck you". I said "If you want me to tank for you, then let me pull." Sure, sounds pretty harsh, but I like parties to, ya know, get XP. If everyone and their mother wants to pull, then so be it, but I won't be staying in that party.

Muwahahahahahaa
OWED XD, this made me smile so much :D
 
lol people still don't know that Lanien plays Lanien again??

Yes, both tymon and I have access to it. But I have my own account (trippy's) to play and tymon doesn't play FFXI that much.
 
The only thing I see wrong in that party was that at least 3 people were pulling. That generally creates mayhem and something is bound to go wrong.
Even though having 2 PLers, people were close to dying because of the lack of cooperation.

Yeah roaming parties are going to suck if it's done like that.
If you didn't have a PL, you'd be taking on mobs at least 1 at a time maybe 2 provided if the party can handle getting hit double as much and still survive.

For a person to say they are so-and-so level on a different job does not make them that much more knowledgeable. In fact, I'd say thats a relatively negligible point.
For a person to even make their case in an argument with that is weak. What is going on in that situation does not matter if you have jobs 50+ or multiple jobs at 75. It does not matter nor is it relevant to the situation at hand.

Kiskie, I know you may think you are in the right in this case, but to me it seems like you just over-reacted. It just looks like that.
In this case, due to omission of certain details, Lanien's side is more sounder and more convincing.
 
"Due to omission of some details on Kiskie's side, Lanien's side is more convincing"

is what I wanted to say....damn no edit!!!

Wait, so...what was your original intent of killing mobs in the first place if you knew they weren't exping off them?
 
roaming parties suck guys.
 
So does Kiskie not realize that you have to roam for worms at the pond? Worms don't follow you to camp. Why isn't anyone pointing that out?

Otherwise Lanien is right it should be the tank that chooses which mob to attack in a roaming.
 
alright guys let me go pull some worms

kayy.. we'll be right here
 
Lanien was honest and said what his original intent was then changed his mind after consideration. That make him mature and cool beans.
 
Is this like a new thing... a well branded member with excellent reputation brought to a 'draw' in a flame levied against said member?

Kudos to you both - I think I agree with Mistra. Just a bad day, thats all.

Let this thread be a hardnuts lesson to all: never trust someone who levelled DRG as their first job.

:nono:

I think it's an increasing trend to get reckless with a PL because the assumption is the PL can save everyone or fix random screwups. With two (freakin a just why does anyone need 2, especially at that level), I can only imagine people get even bolder.

Bottom line is you don't "pull" worms, and since the tank is really kind of the one who needs the hate, yeah he or she should be the one selecting them. And switching to a high level job to screw a whole party is definitely low. Glad to hear someone resisted the urge to be a jerk. Kind of refreshing.
 
Yes, like I said, my original intent was to be an asshole. We all have our urges. For that I apologize, but in the end, all I was doing was killing mobs no one was going after anyways. I mostly Virelai'ed Clippers which they weren't going after anyways, and that was before they even had a full party.
